Libe

My story

Quick Facts Name: Libe  Age: 3-4 years old Gender: Female  Neutered/Spayed: Yes  Breed: Jindo Mix  Color: Brown & White  Weight: 16kg    All About MeHi, I’m Libe! I’m a 3 to 4-year-old Jindo mix with a soft brown and white coat and a thoughtful, observant personality. I weigh about 16kg (35lb) and have clearly lived in a home before—based on how well I know commands like “sit,” “wait,” and “paw.” My journey took a turn when I was found wandering outside. A kind person took me in for a few days before I was sent to the city pound. That’s where my second chapter began. People think I once lived closely with humans, but I may have experienced some hard moments, especially with men. I’m a little wary at first, but once I trust you, I’ll show my sweet and loyal side.   My PersonalityI’m a smart, curious girl with a gentle heart. I may be shy when meeting someone new, especially if you’re a man, but I warm up quickly when there are treats involved. I like to observe first, then slowly come closer. Once I know I’m safe, I’ll let you pick me up, and I’ll even roll over to show my belly as a sign of trust. I don’t mind being independent, but when I bond with someone, I bond deeply. I’ll follow you around and lean into your side for comfort. I enjoy affection—but only when I’m ready—and I always appreciate calm and respectful energy.   Social SkillsI get along with dogs my size, but I do have a jealous streak, especially if attention or food is involved. I’ve shown that I can get upset with other dogs if they cross my boundaries or try to compete for affection. Because of that, I would do best as an only dog in the home, where I don’t have to share my people. I haven’t been tested with cats yet, but I’ve shown no signs of aggression or prey drive outdoors.   Energy and ActivitiesI have a moderate energy level and love going outside for walks. I enjoy sniffing everything around me and like to take my time. I don’t pull too hard on the leash, but sometimes I get excited or focused and might need a gentle reminder to stay close. That said, I don’t like the click of the leash clip and may try to run when I hear it. If you sit down and let me come to you, I’ll let you put it on without a fuss. I’m also not a fan of having my collar grabbed or tugged—calm, respectful handling works best for me.   Training and HabitsI’m house-trained and prefer outdoor potty breaks, but I’m flexible if needed. I know how to sit, wait, and offer my paw, especially when treats are involved. I don’t resource guard with humans, but if another dog gets too close while I’m eating, I might let out a little growl. That’s why it’s best if I’m the only pet in your home. I sometimes bark for attention when I want something, but I quiet down once I get what I need. I travel best when I’m carried into the vehicle, as I get a bit nervous jumping in by myself. Once I’m in the crate or car, I settle well.   My Ideal HomeI’d thrive in a quiet, stable home with one or two patient adults who give me the space to come out of my shell. I’d do best as the only dog so I don’t have to compete for attention or food. A home with calm energy and consistent routines would help me feel safe and loved. If you’re someone who respects a dog’s boundaries and enjoys building slow, meaningful bonds, I could be your perfect match.   Special NotesI’m a little wary of leash hardware and collar grabbing, but with patience and kindness, I become a sweet, affectionate, and loyal girl. I have great focus and eagerness to learn, and I’m happiest when I feel connected to someone I trust.   For More YouTube Clips, Click Here! Libe's YouTube Playlist ##2346045##
